How we handle wood floor repair in Blandford Forum
Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Laminate swollen by water can’t be repaired, and we will be honest about that. We work on solid wood, wood-effect vinyl (ask us) and engineered wood, and common reasons people contact us are scratches from furniture and pets and dents from dropped items.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Put felt pads on furniture legs and wipe up spills promptly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- We clean the damaged area.
- Next we fill the dents and chips.
- We sand the repair flush with the board.
- We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
- We finish the repair to match the sheen of the floor.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
